No Posts Sunday

Allison2There probably won’t be any posts Sunday.  We’re holding a mud volleyball tournament.   Things should be back to normal Monday, but there will be minimal posts Tuesday through Friday as I’m on another quick trip to Florida to visit my 92 year old aunt.


Update:   I lied.  One post.

Are you SURE you want to have kids?

Messy-kid* Dressing small children is not as easy as it seems: first buy an octopus and a bag made out of loose mesh. Attempt to put the octopus into the bag so that none of the arms hang out.

* Learn the names of every character from Sesame Street, Barney, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

* Can you stand the mess children make? To find out, first smear peanut butter onto the sofa and jam onto the curtains. Stick your fingers in the flower beds, then rub them on the clean walls. Cover the stains with crayons. How does that look?

It's not just a matter of reading books and decorating the nursery. Here are 12 simple tests for expectant parents to take to prepare themselves for the real-life experience of being a mother or father.

Another drunken night

A man, whose level of drunkenness was bordering on the absurd, stood up to leave a bar and fell flat on his face.
"Maybe all I need is some fresh air," thought the man as he crawled outside. 
He tried to stand up again, but fell face first into the mud.
"Screw it," he thought. "I'll just crawl home."
The next morning, his wife found him on the doorstep asleep.
"You went out drinking last night, didn't you?" she said.
"Uh, yes," he said sheepishly. "How did you know?"
"You left your wheelchair at the bar again."

A short conversation with God

The man: "God, how long is a million years?"


God: "To me, it's about a minute."


The man: "God, how much is a million dollars?"


God: "To me it's a penny."


The man: "God, may I have a penny?"


God: "Wait a minute."

Ole, the artist

ArtOle, while not a brilliant scholar, was a gifted portrait artist.

As his fame grew, people from all over the country were coming to him in MN for portraits.

One day while Ole was mowing the lawn, a beautiful woman pulled up to his house in a stretch limo. She asked Ole if he would paint her in the nude. She said money was no object -- she was willing to pay him $50,000.

Not wanting to get into trouble with Lena, Ollie asked the woman to wait while he went in the house and conferred with his missus.

In a few minutes he returned and said to the lady, "Ya, shoor, you betcha. I'll paint ya in da nude, but I'll haff ta leave my socks on so I'll have a place to wipe my brushes."

Woman accidentally inhales condom

CondomA 27-year-old lady presented with persistent cough, sputum and fever for the preceding six months. Inspite of trials with antibiotics and anti-tuberculosis treatment for the preceeding four months, her symptoms did not improve. A subsequent chest radiograph showed non-homogeneous collapse-consolidation of right upper lobe. Videobronchoscopy revealed an inverted bag like structure in right upper lobe bronchus and rigid bronchoscopic removal with biopsy forceps confirmed the presence of a condom. Detailed retrospective history also confirmed accidental inhalation of the condom during fellatio.

Thief gives police the finger... literally

Detectives traced a suspected thief after he left his severed finger at the crime scene.

The digit was found at a South Shields building site after workers reported the theft of a motorbike on Tuesday.

Officers then took the finger to South Tyneside Hospital, where they found a man waiting in the accident and emergency department without a finger.

It is believed the alleged thief ripped his finger off after becoming trapped under a crashed motorbike.

Contact juggling

Contact juggling is a form of object manipulation that focuses on the movement of objects such as balls in permanent contact with the body. Having little in common with "toss" juggling, it most typically involves the rolling of one or more completely transparent balls on the hands and arms to create visual illusions, such as that of a ball fixed in space.

Hero?

A Bostonian visited San Antonio and asked a native, "What is that dilapidated-looking ruin over there?"

"That, suh, is the Alamo. In that building, suh, 136 immortal Texans held off an army of 15,000 of Santa Anna's regulars for four days."

"Um-m-m," said the Bostonian, "and who was that man on horseback on that hill over there?"

"That, suh, is a statue of a Texas ranger. He killed 46 Apaches in single-handed combat and broke up 27 riots in his lifetime. Where you from, stranger?"

"I'm from Boston. We have our heroes there, too. Paul Revere, for instance --"

"Paul Revere!" snorted the Texan. "You mean that guy who had to ride for help?"

Family says pet bear just like a dog

Petbearue2A Pennsylvania family turns heads driving down local roads with their pet bear sticking her gigantic head out the window.

Abby is much like a dog to the Friday family - just a little bigger and with wild animal instincts.

"I just remember, there's always the wild animal in them," said Abby's owner, Sam Friday. "Treat an animal like you want to be treated. Give the love and caring and they'll give you loving and caring back."


He said the big pet loves to go for rides.

"We take her down to the gas station for M&Ms", he said. "People watch her with her head out the window like a dog panting."

The Fridays said they have a license to own the bear through the state game commission.

41 Money Facts That Will Blow You Away

Do you think you know a lot about money? Maybe you do. Maybe you don't. But let's see if any of the following facts are in any way surprising to you:


   1. More of our fantasies are about money... than sex.
   3. 90% of Americans who own pets buy them Christmas gifts.
   6. For $10,000,000 most of us would do almost ANYTHING! Including abandoning our family and friends and our church. A very high percentage of us would, for that same amount of money, change our race or sex. And, 1 in every 14, would even murder someone for ten million bucks.   What's really strange about this is, the statistics remain the same whether it's ten million dollars all the way down to three million. For three million bucks, most of us would do the same horrible things we would do for ten million. But, guess what? Few of us would do these things for a "measly" two million.
   7. 92% of us would rather be rich than find the love of our lives.
   9. If you get your money out of a Hitachi ATM machine in Japan, it will be laundered. The way they do it is, they briefly press the bills between rollers at high enough temperatures to kill most bacteria.
  10. Women have very fixed ideas on how much they are willing to spend on a bra. 38.3% of women won't spend $30 for a bra. 28.4% won't spend $50. 10% would pay as much as $75. And, only 3.5% would shell out $100. But, you know what? Almost 20% of women say they would pay almost anything for a bra. This is because they consider (and I guess so do a few men) that the contents of what those bras are encasing is of extremely high-value.
  11. Nearly half of the people who sell their houses with furniture included will take all the light bulbs out of all the lamps when they vacate the premises.
  12. Most people won't bend over to pick up money lying on the sidewalk unless it's at least a dollar.
  13. Most Americans think pennies are a pain in the ass and the U.S. Mint should stop making them.
  14. There is about 405 billion dollars in circulation. Only 32 million of that amount is counterfeit. That means, the percentage of counterfeit money in America is .0079%. And, $20 bills are more often counterfeited than $100 bills.
  17. One out of every four Americans believe their best chance of getting rich is by playing the lottery.
  18. How about this one for a shocking fact: 5% of lottery ticket buyers buy 51% of all tickets sold. (Trust me, none of these people belong to the "Einsteins of America Society".)
  21. A person who drives 10 miles to buy a lottery ticket is 3 times more likely to be killed in a car accident while driving to buy the ticket... than... he is to win the jackpot.
  25. 63% of us decide NOT to buy a product advertised on the Internet... because... we think the shipping and handling charges add too much to the order.
  26. Eight times as many Americans would rather use an ATM than deal with a real live teller.
  31. The average wedding in America costs a staggering $20,000.00.
  32. More than one-third of American women consider money more important than good sex to the success of a marriage.
  33. According to Employee Benefits Research Institute 96% of all people who have jobs right now won't be eligible for their full Social Security benefits when they reach age 65.
  37. People tip more on sunny days than they do on dreary days.

Everything you ever wanted (or didn't want) to know about pigeons

PigeonWhy do pigeons bob their heads?
The pigeon has side mounted eyes unlike humans and owls which have forward facing eyes.  As a pigeons have monocular vision rather than binocular vision they bob their heads for depth of perception.  The pigeon’s eyes work much better with stationary images and therefore, as the pigeon takes a step forward the head is temporarily left behind.  The next step jerks the head forward again and so on.  This allows the bird to correctly orient itself.


Why do you never see a baby pigeon?
Most small birds rear and fledge their young in 2/3 weeks with young birds sometimes leaving the nest after only 10 days of life, but pigeons are different, their young remain in the nest for up to 2 months before fledging.  This gives the young pigeon an advantage over many other species of bird. It leaves the nest as a relatively mature juvenile, allowing the bird to cope better in the first few days of its life, a dangerous time for all youngsters.  Juveniles can be told apart from adults but it takes an experienced eye. A juvenile’s beak often appears to be far too long for the size of its body and the cere (the fleshy area at the top of the beak) is white in adults and greyish pink in juveniles.

Monkey on a plane....

… and Samuel Jackson is nowhere to be found.  I heard about this driving to work this morning.  Here’s the story:



Pygmy_MarmosetMan smuggles monkey aboard NYC bound plane



A man smuggled a monkey onto an airplane Tuesday, stashing the furry fist-size primate under his hat until passengers spotted it perched on his ponytail, an airline official said.


The monkey escapade began in Lima, Peru, late Monday, when the man boarded a flight to Fort Lauderdale, said Spirit Airlines spokeswoman Alison Russell. After landing Tuesday morning, the man waited several hours before catching a connecting flight to LaGuardia Airport.


During the flight, people around the man noticed that the marmoset, which normally lives in forests and eats fruit and insects, had emerged from underneath his hat, Russell said.


"Other passengers asked the man if he knew he had a monkey on him," she said.


The monkey spent the remainder of the flight in the man's seat and behaved well, said Russell, who didn't know how it skirted customs and security.

Emergency room visit

Patch-728976The other day, I needed to go to the emergency room.


Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on my old Army fatigues and stuck a patch that I had downloaded off the Internet onto the front of my shirt.


When I went into the E. R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left. I guess they decided that they weren't that sick after all.


Here's the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you're in need of quicker emergency service.

A texas blonde

Amy, a blonde Texas city girl, marries a Texas rancher. One morning, on his way out to check on the cows, the rancher says to Amy, "The insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today. I drove a nail into the two-by-four just above the cow's stall in the barn.


You show him where the cow is when he gets here, okay?" 


So the rancher leaves for the fields. After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door. Amy takes him down to the barn. They walk along the row of cows and when she sees the nail, she tells him, "This is the one.. right here."

Terribly impressed by what he seemed to think just might be another ditzy blonde, the man asks, "Tell me little lady, how did you know this is the cow to be bred?"


"That's simple. By the nail over its stall," Amy explains very confidently.

Then the man asks, "What's the nail for?"


She turns to walk away, and with complete confidence, says: "I guess it's to hang your pants on....."

Here is some video I shot a week or so ago at the Lake of the Ozarks.  Ten of us guys were out on a pontoon boat.  We were rocking back and forth and up and down in the wake of the larger boats.   We also had ten guys on the boat…and some of these guys are big boys who sat near the front of the boat.  All of a sudden the front end of the boat appeared to go under the water…and a deluge of water burst onto the boat.  Everything in the boat started floating, including the seats these big guys were sitting on.  It didn’t last long and we got the thing under control in about a minute. 

Surprise!

Hollywood rules

HollywoodSign2It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts: your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one, dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.


A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.


Honest and hard-working policemen are traditionally gunned down three days before their retirement.


Even when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel vigorously from left to right every few moments.


All beds have special L-shaped sheets that reach the armpit level of a woman, but only the waist level of the man lying beside her.


At least one of a pair of identical twins is born evil.


If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises in their most revealing underwear.


Most laptop computers are powerful enough to override the communications system of any invading alien society.


All grocery bags contain at least one stick of French bread.


Police departments give their officers personality tests to make sure they are deliberately assigned a partner who is their total opposite.


Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gasses, lasers, and man-eating sharks, which will allow their captives at least a half-hour to escape.


You’re very likely to survive any battle in any war unless you make the mistake of showing someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.


All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they’re going to go off, but luckily you’ll always blindly choose to cut the right wire.


A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating, but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.


If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.

New at Wal-Mart

Wal-Mart announced that, sometime in 2008, it will begin offering customers a new discount item --- Wal-Mart's own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2 - $5 range. Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville.

"But the right name is important."

Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand. The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:



10. Chateau Traileur ParcSmilie

9. White Trashfindel

8. Big Red Gulp

7. World Championship Riesling

6. NASCARbernet

5. Chef Boyardeaux

4. Peanut Noir

3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar

2. Grape Expectations

1. Nasti Spumante



The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel) .

P.S. Don't bother writing back that this is a hoax. I know possum is not a white meat.

A little church humor

A father was approached by his small son who told him proudly, "I know what the Bible means!" His father smiled and replied, "What do you mean, you 'know' what the Bible means?" The son replied, "I do know!" "Okay," said his father.  "What does the Bible mean?" "That's easy, Daddy..." the young boy replied excitedly, "It stands for 'Basic Information Before Leaving Earth.'
========
There was a very gracious lady who was mailing an old family Bible to her brother in another part of the country.  "Is there anything breakable in here?" asked the postal clerk.
"Only the Ten Commandments." answered the lady.
========
"Somebody has said there are only two kinds of people in the world.
There are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good morning, Lord,"
and there are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good Lord, it's morning."
========
A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter.  Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have circled the block 10 times.  If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment.  Forgive us our trespasses."
When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer along with this note "I've circled this block for 10 years.  If I don't give you a ticket I'll lose my job.  Lead us not into temptation."
========
There is the story of a pastor who got up one Sunday and announced to his congregation: "I have good news and bad news.  The good news is, we have enough money to pay for our new building program.  The bad news is, it's still out there in your pockets."
========
While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage.  The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because attached to the back of the carriage was a hand printed sign...  "Energy efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass.  Caution: Do not step in exhaust."
========
A Sunday School teacher began her lesson with a question, "Boys and girls, what do we know about God?" A hand shot up in the air.  "He is an artist!" said the kindergarten boy.  "Really?  How do you know?" the teacher asked.
"You know - Our Father, who does art in Heaven...  "
========
A minister waited in line to have his car filled with gas just before a long holiday weekend.  The attendant worked quickly, but there were many cars ahead of him.  Finally, the attendant motioned him toward a vacant pump.  "Reverend," said the young man, "I'm so sorry about the delay.  It seems as if everyone waits until the last minute to get ready for a long trip." The minister chuckled, "I know what you mean.  It's the same in my business."
========
People want the front of the bus, the back of the church, and the center of attention.
========
Sunday after church, a Mom asked her very young daughter what the lesson was about.  The daughter answered, "Don't be scared, you'll get your quilt." Needless to say, the Mom was perplexed.  Later in the day, the pastor stopped by for tea and the Mom asked him what that morning's Sunday school lesson was about.  He said "Be not afraid, thy comforter is coming."
========
The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to ask the congregation to come up with more money than they were expecting for repairs to the church building.  Therefore, he was annoyed to find that the regular organist was sick and a substitute !  had been brought in at the last minute.  The substitute wanted to know what to play.
"Here' s a copy of the service," he said impatiently.  "But, you'll have to think of something to play after I make the announcement about the finances."
During the service, the minister paused and said, "Brothers and Sisters, we are in great difficulty; the roof repairs cost twice as much as we expected and we need $4,000 more.  Any of you who can pledge $100 or more, please stand up."
At that moment, the substitute organist played "The Star Spangled Banner." And that is how the substitute became the regular organist!


Thanks Mary

Bullet holes

Redneck of the month

This lesson is on how not to do things seems to totally escape some people.
I'd love to see how the trip ended up but I feel confident he ended up in a ravine somewhere wondering why bad things seems to always happen to him. 


RV1.
He's hooked up and ready to fly!! It's amazing how the extra weight really smoothed out the ride in the truck.
He did have to air up the rear tires a bit (around 160 psi)


RV2
He added some heavy-duty chain for extra support on the tailgate (note that he used the 'Heavy-Duty 'S' hooks to attach the chain).   He also paid-up for some BIG 5/16 sheet metal screws to attach the frame to the tailgate. Yeah, he knows it's overkill, but he didn't want the possibility of having an accident.


RV3
Much of his time was spent on his front porch whittling down that MASSIVE 4x4 board to fit precisely into the ball mount receiver. Also note that he used a 14' piece of 4x4 to help distribute the load more evenly--'YOU CAN'T BE TOO SAFE, YOU KNOW!!'. ' It cost a little more, but you just can't be too safe when pulling a trailer of this magnitude !!'.


Look out Utah , cause here he comes !!!!
